    I have posters complaining about how links to our site look on Twitter. Often has a XenForo logo on the left and if a link to a subforum, the subforum's title is displayed.

    I added 2 moderators to a forum/node and removed one. The old moderator list is dispalyed. I've tried rebuilding most of the caches but no luck. I tried running most of the cron tasks, too. Any idea how to get the moderators to update on the page?

    Hey Mike, Thanks for all the help. Things are running like a top on AWS. I think everyone might want to avoid Digital Ocean for hosting until they get their act together. This is the response I got from them after letting them know I was leaving and that their spotty LAN network was causing...

    There's already a flood control in options that mostly eliminates double posts. If you set it to anything but 0, the second button click request to post again may be rejected.

    I did move the site to a good sized (8 core 15G) AWS instance. It's WAY faster, but at flood control 0 I hit submit and there was a long delay. The animated AJAX pending graphic was in the upper right corner of the browser window. The button enabled, I clicked it again. I clicked a total of...

    As I said, the submit button should be linked to the XHR, not to its own timer. You are guaranteed to generate lock wait timeout if the user clicks the button again before the XHR returns. It's a race condition between his first and second tries! I turned everything back on after setting...

    So here's something you might be able to fix. They click the Post Reply button. It goes disabled, then enabled too soon. In theory, you should be using setTimout of 30 seconds and check the XHR in the handler to see if the server isn't responding. On error, popup, re-enable the Post Reply...

    The replication slave/standby server isn't running, so it can't be locking anything. The site was fine much of the day, now triple posting. The three WWW instances are running sendmail already. I'm considering changing hosting providers. Maybe their network is swamped or some other technical...

    Maybe I spoke too soon. Two guys in the same thread with maybe 2-4 people total reading the thread just triple posted. Same poste 3 times. Nothing in the error log at all.
